On Linux, im2graph requires both wxWidgets and OpenCV to run properly. The Linux version of im2graph comes in two flavors: one compiled for OpenCV-2.3 and wxWidgets-2.8 and the other for OpenCV-2.4 and wxWidgets-2.8. It’s best to install these packages from your distro’s package manager. For example, on Debian Wheezy, OpenCV2.3 and wxWidgets2.8 are avaiable; whereas on Ubunt OpenCV2.4 and wxWidgets2.8. Download the respective version of im2graph.

On Windows, the shared libraries (DLLs) are zipped with the executable so you don’t need to install anything.

Degrid is a user-assisted option. The downside of using degrid is that it splits the selection graph into patches. Also, on graphs with many gridlines this might causes the grids to totally wipe out the graph such as in millimetric graphing papers.

A considerable amount of image formats is available, including: Jpeg, PNG, bitmap, TIFF, PCX and many more. If you require an unsupported image format, please use an image editing application to convert the image to one of the supported formats.

im2graph supports logarithmic scales of the X-axis, the Y-axis or both. Logarithmic scales are available from Edit|Options. For a logarithmic scale in X-axis, select Logarithmic Scale (X); for the Y-axis, select Logarithmic scale (Y); for both (a log-log graph), select both X and Y.
